Be a part of this fun, festive event right before the holidays. On December 9th, from noon – 6:00 pm, South 1st Street in Lehighton will turn into a magical holiday event. With over 70 vendors, the Lehighton Downtown businesses, live music, food, activities, 174 Christmas Trees in the park, horse and wagon rides and more it will be a delightful day of Christmas shopping and enjoying the ambiance of a small town at the holidays.

Bring the children dressed in their best Christmas outfits as Snow Maidens and Little Lords of the Forest as they open Hometown Vintage Christmas with a march down the street including Father Christmas and his drummer. Please meet at the fountain in the park by 11:45 am. When the parade is finished the children can meet with Father Christmas inside Wine & More and let him know all of the presents they would like to see under their tree on Christmas morning. Parents this is a great photo opportunity!

When the children are finished telling Father Christmas their Christmas desires, there will be crafts and games for the children to participate including a life size Gingerbread House donated by Robbie’s Balloons and More! Another great photo op waiting for your family.

Don’t forget to grab a ticket for the Horse and Wagon rides being held from 12:30 pm – 4:30 pm. Once you have your ticket it will have a return time so you can shop, eat and play until it is your turn to experience the magic of the Christmas Season with a Horse and Wagon ride. All of the Lehighton Downtown Initiative activities are free of charge for Hometown Vintage Christmas.

Live music will be filling the air all day long with the music of Autumn Falls Entertainment, Sienna McGeehan and Eric Stimmler.
